Amy Shuman
Amy Shuman/Jurasinski (Dunkleberger ) (March 10, 1925 – August 22, 2014) was born in Mohrsville, Pennsylvania to parents Earl and Pearl (Gerber) Dunkleberger. Amy played in the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League during the 1946 season. She measured 5-foot 6-inch and weighed 140 pounds, and batted and threw left-handed. ==Early love for ball== From aged 8, Amy played baseball everyday on her family’s farm, with Dorothy, Elaine and Charles, her older siblings. In later years, her younger siblings – Doris and Gladys – also joined in. All the kids were encouraged to play and develop their baseball skills by their father who would play with them when he could. Her mother on the other hand, “would get mad when () played all day and not do the chores she wanted us to do,” Nonetheless, every kid from the neighborhood would come most days to the field to play too. After graduating Ontelaunee High School in 1942, Amy worked for the Reading Company and continued to excel on the softball diamond. In 1943 she and her sisters rejoined the Mohrsville Dodgers. A little while later, the girls played for the Diamond Lil’s, a team that did pretty well in Pennsylvania but not so good in state tournaments against the Kaufmann Maids. Amy was named ‘Rookie of the Year,’ when she was just in ninth grade. oach Clemens described the girls as “tireless performers,” and they truly were the team’s backbone. Amy played in outfield and first base; Elaine in center field; Gladys was a catcher, and Doris a pitcher.
